I'm not a fan of CAFO by any means but I see that you are posting photos that are not "correct".
Modern equipment is required now. Government mandate.

If you are right, then why are 6 states suing California because they don't want to give their layers the space that California law requires which is 60 sq ft for 60 hens? The average space in a battery cage which is what the photos I provided is 67 square inches per chicken, or about 8" x 8" and that is if the factory farm doesn't double up on nesting boxes.

There is NO federal law regulating the size of layer cages, there was a bill but it never went anywhere:

answer ! because when markets on something change they move across the board every whre , for whatever reason .

markets do that all day be it commodity markets , stock markets or bond markets .

they react , sometimes correctly and sometimes in correctly but in all cases it has zero to do with current inflation

I asked for the source of that picture not links about activist groups against CAFO's.

You are either clueless or a 1%er type. This kind of rhetoric we see so often today makes me wonder where this country is headed. Or maybe why it is where it is.

Good luck when the middle class is gone.
